The resolution honors the memory of Dorothy J. Haggard, who passed away on June 26, 2025, at the age of 91. Born in Emmet, Arkansas, on August 19, 1933, she was the daughter of Ben and Lillian Murphy and Annie and Curtis Daugherty, and she had five siblings. Dorothy was a devoted wife to John E. Haggard for 64 years until his death in 2016, and she was a proud mother to her children, Debbie and Randy, as well as a grandmother to Johnathan. Despite losing her eyesight in 1997, she remained resilient and active in her faith as a member of the First Assembly of God in Hooks.

The Texas Senate expresses its condolences to Dorothy Haggard's family, including her daughter, son, grandson, and siblings, acknowledging the impact she had on those around her with her humor and spirit. The resolution concludes with a directive to prepare an official copy for her family and to adjourn in her memory.
